Question - Removing Illusions in KA ini, but it keeps casting - help

Wondering if I broke something or forgotten something, I keep getting the removed illusions to constantly recast and remove. The two familiars slightly different though, the Direwolf used to do the same thing but when I added the Nagafen one, it now stays but the little Naggy Familiar keeps removing and recast when not in battle. I used to have Aspect of the Brood and Mask of Scaled Cunning in this ini as well, but it got to crazy with the spell spam recasting.
Any help/advice? In the ini below I have the Dual there, I did have the OTHER spell initially that the Dual casts (the buff) Here is my ini:
Code:
Buffs14=Direwolf Totem of Battle|dual|Stoic Wolf Familiar
Buffs15=Summon Stoic Wolf Familiar|remove
Buffs16=Dragorn War Mask|Dual|Illusion: Dragorn|Once
Buffs17=Illusion: Dragorn|Remove
Buffs18=Form of the Recluse|Dual|Illusion: Recluse Spider|Once
Buffs19=Illusion: Recluse Spider|Remove
Buffs20=Familiar of Lord Nagafen|Dual|Summon Familiar: Dragon Sage
Buffs21=Summon Familiar: Dragon Sage|Remove
RebuffOn=1
CheckBuffsTimer=10

I am reposting this in Questions (and deleting the old thread) because I incorrectly posted directly in KA/ini thread. No one sees it there.

i don't think once works like you think it does here

i'm assuming you're recasting both the dragorn and the recluse?

i would use the dual flag here for the buff and then the remove for the thing i don't want, here is an example from a mount, and how i did the jann's veil
INI:
Buffs17=Winter Jackalope Saddle|Dual|Mount Blessing Lena
; update to whatever mount you have.
Buffs18=Summon Winter Jackalope|Remove

Buffs15=Jann's Veil|Cond15

Cond15=!${Me.Buff[Illusion Benefit Greater Jann].ID}

Buffs16=Illusion: |Remove

Buffs19=Illusion: Recluse Spider|Remove

you are telling it oyu need the form of the recluse, and the spell it needs to know you have it on you is the illusion, then you remove the illusion

its gonna be like oh i dont have illusion, lets just cast that spell then
oh i need to remove the illusion now
and then guess what it thinks next?

if you dont intend to keep the illusion on you, make it not the counter for if the spell is on you
 
@Sic Thanks man, I'll take out the once and try that nice Condition you have too. In your line 9, I am curious is your ini listed like that without the illusion name listed?

@kaen01 I had the dual buff listed with the other spell on each before, maybe I had it misspelled. Ill reput the non illusion spell back.

This worked well on a 3 items/aa's I had for one of my toons, so thanks again for posting. Was able to clean up the ini a bit and obtain the intended result!
